Abstract This study evaluated the effects of vegetation and internal water storage (IWS) on evapotranspiration (ET), hydrologic performance, and water quality in bioretention mesocosms. Twelve mesocosms were configured as planted/free-drainage (PF), planted/IWS (PI), unplanted/free-drainage (UF), and …

Small wind turbines face significant challenges in achieving commercial viability due to lower efficiency and higher energy costs compared to utility-scale systems and competing renewable technologies. Counter-rotating dual-rotor wind turbines (CR-DRWTs) with dual-rotational armature configurations offer …

CO₂ emissions from electricity generation in the Netherlands fluctuate on an hourly basis, depending on which power plants are active in the energy mix. Accurate next-day forecasts of these emissions would enable companies to align energy consumption with low emission periods, but reliable forecasting …

Lignocellulose represents an abundant repository of renewable carbon. Derived from various plant sources, it holds tremendous potential as a renewable and sustainable feedstock for the production of valuable chemicals and fuels. However, its solid fermentable compounds, cellulose and hemicellulose, are …

Computed tomography (CT) at the third lumbar vertebra (L3) is widely used for muscle quantification, but manual segmentation is labor intensive. This study externally validates an AI model, trained on a public dataset, for automated L3 muscle segmentation using an independent cohort, including a subgroup …

Introductie: Adolescente voetballers die aspireren het elite­niveau te bereiken, volgen doorgaans een duale carrière. Daarnaast maken zij een snelle fysieke en psychologische ontwikkeling door binnen unieke sociale omgevingen. Niet-trainingsgerelateerde stressoren, zoals onderwijstaken, kunnen stress …

Doel De betrokkenheid van supraspinale structuren bij de controle van passieve bewegingen is nog onvoldoende opgehelderd. Eerdere studies leverden elektromyografisch bewijs voor snelheids- en type-afhankelijke veranderingen in spieractiviteit. Op basis van eigenschappen van mechanoreceptoren, leeftijdsgerelateerde …

To explore conceptual frameworks and practice approaches underpinning Supported Education programmes for students with mental health problems in higher education institutions. We followed Arksey and O`Malley`s (2005) Scoping Review Framework and its revised versions. The Preferred Reporting Items for …

The textile industry is one of the most polluting industries. To reduce its environmental impact, the entire supply chain must transition from a linear to a circular economy, making textile recycling at end-of-life critical. Stimulated by new regulations, the industry is increasingly incorporating recycled …
